Mobile handset

Hi,

Does any one know where to buy a new mobile handset apart from ebay or privately ?

I'm after either Samsung Galaxy S5 or HTC one M8 but at places like carphone warehouse they are both around 550, where as on ebay they are around 100 cheaper.

Thanks

Ebay ones are cheaper for a reason. I bought one from a seller/shop for £380 i dont think i have original warranty and its funny how there is no original charger inside the box. Seller provided a old style samsung charger outside the box. The box was fully sealed and i dont think it is a refurb too. Otherwise the phone is awsome.

I brought my brand new Galaxy S5 from CEX within a week of its UK release. It was an unwanted upgrade that someone had sold to CEX. I went in with a bunch of old handsets I had which they gave me loads of store credit for and I ended up getting the Galaxy S5 for next to nothing.

I'm sure its already been discussed to death but couldn't help asking again.

I think there are couple of other phones I should consider apart from Samsung and Htc, as the main feature for me is a very good quality still and video camera and a good crisp screen with decent battery life.

So which one should I consider apart from Samsung and Htc.

Thanks in advance

Galaxy S5 at Carphone Warehouse. Offers are hard to beat.

Search the web exclusive deals.

Iphone 5c is a good phone. Battery life lasts the whole day even when listening to music and browsing.

Also the New Sony one has a great camera if taking pics is your thing.
